Shipments delivered via Rapid Express Saver will not necessarily be delivered to the addressee personally. The Carrier may deliver a package to the addressee shown on the barcode label or to any other person appearing to have authority to accept delivery of the package on the addressee's behalf (such as persons at the same premises as the addressee or neighbours of the addressee). When shipping to residential address, if the drop off location is in a 'safe' area, then the courier driver will leave the parcel at your doorstep.

Documents Needed
After you have paid for a shipping service to Usa, you will be redirected
to a page where you can download and print out the relevant shipping labels, i.e
AWB (Courier Air Waybills - barcode) - Proforma or Commercial invoice - Address label.
The above documents are standard for any international shipment.
Please note, if additional documentation is required for the import of any particular item, it is the
customer's responsibility to provide them at destination.
Restrictions
Goods travelling by 'Cargo' are subject to different restrictions to those travelling as carry-on
luggage.
A shipment to Usa is deemed unacceptable if: it is classified as
hazardous material, dangerous goods, prohibited or restricted articles by IATA (International Air
Transport Association), ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organisation) or other relevant organisation.
Many items which appear harmless in everyday use can pose danger on air transport and are consequently
forbidden for transport.
The following page displays a sampling of common prohibited and restricted goods.

Packing Advice
Your parcel must be boxed and well packaged. This will reduce the risk of damage to any item during
transit or any associated automated distribution process.
Please be aware the item is not taken by hand from collection to destination and will visit many sorted
facilities on its journey. For that reason, you need to protect the items to ensure they make it from A
to B safely.
The following packaging guidelines are recommendations to assist you in packaging your shipment:

Sometimes there is one factor above all others that comes to the forefront when making a package delivery to Baltimore. It may be that what you're shipping to Baltimore is especially important, meaning you'll be particularly grateful for our simple online tracking system, or perhaps you have a great number of items that require a Baltimore package delivery, in which case you'll be keen to take advantage of our time and labour saving bulk upload facility. Time and again, however, we've found that the key priority of our customers is the speed of delivery. For both corporate customers, whose parcel delivery to Baltimore might contain items of vital commercial significance, and personal individuals who might have an important personal gift that requires shipping to Baltimore in time for an anniversary, peace of mind comes from knowing that your package delivery to Baltimore will arrive exactly when you need it to.
According to Forbes magazine, Baltimore, in Maryland USA, is the third best place in the country to shop, and the same magazine listed five Fortune 500 companies that call the city home, including Constellation Energy and Grace Chemicals. In the past, Baltimore had a highly industrialised economy, based largely around the car manufacturing, steel processing and shipping industries. In recent years, however, the focus has shifted to jobs being created in the service sector, with the city being a centre for the business, health service and financial sectors for the whole of the southern mid-Atlantic region. Whatever the focus of its economy, however, Baltimore is a thriving city offering many reasons why you might need to make a parcel delivery to Baltimore.
